I have some problems:

I tried to import a folder with 43 images like described above. Some images 
showed no thumbnail in lighttable view but were white, gray or black. See 
screenshot: <https://www.subhash.at/dt/screenshot_dt_import.jpg> Originally 16 
of 43 images showed no thumbnail.

When I double click on image #2 DT crashes after switching to darkroom view. I 
tried this multiple times. I was able to edit #10 and #28. I had to deactivate 
the modul "Rotate". Modul "Crop and rotate" was also used so I expandedd it and 
there was the image! Then a reconstructed the crop I had made in Lightroom and 
switched to lighttable view and there was the thumbnail.

Then I opened #8 (first in second row). The screenshot was made before. I 
deactivated "Rotate" and expanded "Crop and rotate" - I am on a German DT, hope 
the english names of the moduls are correct. The image was shown immediately 
but without crop. It is in landscape format and was shown in correct rotation 
until I closed the modul when it was shown upside down. So I had to expand the 
modul again, rotate by 180°, was able to crop as I liked and the image was 
shown in lighttable as thumbnail. (The screenshot was made before.)

I checked this original crop in Lightroom: There was no rotation needed and the 
crop cut off some pixels from the left and the bottom.

Image #21 (last in third row) is a portrait format. Lightroom detected the 
correct orientation from camera exifs. I applied a crop and cut off some pixels 
on the left and on the top in Lightroom. DT showed the image upright after 
expanding "Crop and rotate". ("Rotate" was left activated.) Closing the modul 
without change the image turned upside down but is still shown now…

BTW Lightroom has a very nice feature when cropping:
While the working area looks similar to DT you see the cropped image in real 
time as preview on top left. I find this very comfortable to see how the 
picture looks cropped. In the working area you see also the cut pixels darkened 
and this disturbs the impression. A feature request.
